First, I've heeded everyone's advice and I'm on my way back up to 1500-1800 cal/day which I'll maintain for at least a month before attempting to
diet again (and this time it will be far less aggressive!).

Can you explain that a little further, please? If I were to lift
weights, causing my muscles to grow bigger, doesn't that mean I've got more muscle tissue? And wouldn't that mean I'm replacing muscle (supposing I once had large muscles, then stopped lifting and let them go)?
